    @Mollytov: I've never heard of that place, and I thought I did a fairly thorough venue search last year.  Is it new?  Looks awesome!  I can totally see a very urban chic wedding there.

    It's been around for just over a year now but the building has been around forever! We are doing a dessert party from 8-2am. 

    Exciting times!

    Where did you hold yours? I feel like i looked at every venue too!

    Very cool.

     

    We held ours at Minter Gardens in Chilliwack.  It was like 34 degrees that day, but it looked gorgeous.

    @engagedtosuperman: I love the roundhouse! I work right beside it. And interesting; We have decided to take our honeymoon in New York! Neither of us has been and it's a dream vacation for me. 

    I hope your planning is going well!

    @Mollytov: I haven't heard of the Metro either. Looks fabulous. 

    @engagedtosuperman: The roundhouse is awesome!

     

    We're getting married at Kirkland House in Ladner. I'm so in love with it!

    @engagedtosuperman:

    The photographers i wanted to use for my wedding have shot many weddings at The Roundhouse. I am attaching one GORGEOUS one here and here is a link to a flickr stream. Hope it helps. 

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/sakuraphotography/2795709002/in/photostream/

    Personally, i have attended a photoshoot there and then we headed off to a great Yaletown restaurant for the reception. It's lovely. January will be interesting tho! Ha!

    Oh! I'm so happy I found this thread! I used to live in Vancouver, but we moved from there in 2006. My FI and I, now live in the Middle East but we are flying in to Vancouver to have our wedding! I'm really excited but it is sooo huge there, I don't know where to start with anything! I think we will only be there for about 5 days before the wedding. I will have to do every last minute thing while I'm there, including the dress alterations. Frown 

    My FI's parents are over the moon about having our wedding in a Church they love, in Richmond. So I think most of everything would be convenient there. Or anywhere close--at least, such as SW Marine Dr/Oak St, those areas close by. ANY and ALL advice or suggestions on where to go for ANYTHING, would be so lovely. I need a venue, florist, caterer, hair salon, hotel.. all of it. But I am open and grateful to ANYthing!

    Thank you

    @NatDawn: I don't really know much about Richmond. I'd post a new thread and hopefully the girls that live out that way will be able to help you!

    @toothfairyb: I know, I can't wait for the day to be here, already.  I have no idea how I'm supposed to focus at work for the rest of the week.   All I can think about is the wedding and honeymoon (oh man, we just booked it and I'm so excited!).
